What recipes are there for ghetto tyre sealant? I have been told of a recipe from an stw member here of equal parts liquid latex and screen wash with a smidge of playpit sand. Can anyone add to that?
I have been using
1 part carpet latex IE copydex
1 part Glycol antifreezw
1 part water .
see it in action here
Where did you get the latex from?
Arts and craft shop
+ a cup of 'rainbow glitter' - semolina tends to ferment 🙂
I am in the carpet trade so we use it
Google Morleys JM600 carpet adhesive .
I got some liquid latex thats used to make halloween masks and stuff like that,is that ok?
I read a few sources that said glitter didnt really help seal
I use, or used to use, 1 tbl spoon of latex, 1tbl spoon of windscreen wash, 1 tbl spoon of Slime, and 1/4 cup of water, stirred well and put into the tyre.
This came from someone on here back in 2003, or thereabouts, when I first had a pair of tubeless wheels built up, and I've been using exactly the same recipe ever since.
The Slime adds fibre to the mix, which helps the latex to coagulate and solidify in the puncture.
Slime as in the tyre sealant?
Really?
